Transfer final calculated grade to the final adjusted grade

Elearning automatically assigns a letter grade to the Final Calculated and Final Adjusted Grade based on your selected Grade Scheme. The Final Adjusted Grade column is used to send the grades to Banner.

Click Grades, then Enter Grades.

Click the yellow ruler icon next to Final Grades.

Transfer the Final Calculated Grade to the Final Adjusted Grade.

Select all your students, or, if you are resending the grades, select a sub-set of students.

Click the Transfer All button and then click Save.

Enter last date of attendance

To comply with Faculty Senate policy, all instructors are required to enter the last date of attendance for all students who have a failing grade or, who have stopped attending class. For those students who stopped attending class, the grade exported is changed from an E to an X in the Adjust and Export grades section below.

Click Enter Grades.

Click Export to SIS (you may need to wait for the page to load).

The Last Attend Date panel appears, listing the names of students who achieved an E.

Enter the Last Attend Date for each student. If the student attended the course throughout the term, use the term end date, otherwise enter the last date the student attended class, if known, or the last date of a course submission (assignment, quiz, etc.).

If you enter dates out of range for the term, an error will be displayed.

You will not be able to continue the Export to SIS process until all dates are entered.

Click the Continue button when finished.

Adjust and export grades

After all Last Attend Dates are entered, the Export to SIS process begins.

Students assigned an Adjusted Final Grade will have a status of Ready to Send.

If you have combined sections, select which section to export. You may not send all the grades at once.

To override a student's grade, click on the pencil icon to edit.

You can designate another letter grade like an X or an I.

After adjusting grades, from the status list, select Ready to Send.

Click Export All Grades.

A status message will display as they are exporting. Note that sending a grade for Demo Student will generate an error but it does not impact the sending of other grades. Grades successfully exported can also be seen from your Final Grade Worksheet in the My Work channel of GoWMU.
